Whelp, he finally arrived from SS today. Delayed 6-7 weeks, for reasons unknown.
Courier almost forgot the smaller box on his truck, and showed up a few mins later to deliver it. Oh boy, a free give away! What could that be?
SS sent the stickers unapplied, as well as the correctly haired and painted Henrietta in a separate box. Can't decide if I'll apply the stickers or not.
They also sent the original bald Henrietta. It wasn't just the hair that was missing on her. The paint apps are completely different, and there are more visible seams on the arm. Also, it appears to be cast as one solid piece, whereas the revised edition ships with the head and arm separated. I'll be removing the regular head at some point, and attaching the pee wee version from SS Ash, in a non-permanent way.
Threw everything together very quickly, just to suss out what I was going to use. I'd always planned on giving the base to SS Ash. That vice stand is super wonky btw.
Used the rest to make a Possessed Ash (I'll tuck the shirt in once I figure out how to undo the belt). Ordered a more poseable body, and pointing left hand, from Monkey Depot. Also ordered an axe. Wish I could find a small magnifying glass necklace though.
Here's how they fit in a detolf side by side. Quick & dirty. Haven't futzed, or customized anything yet.
As for the leftovers, I do have plans so that nothing goes to waste
As for all my complaints about the wonky eyes, they're so small that you really don't notice them in person. It's really only in photos that they show up so clearly. All in all, for what I plan to do with these parts, I'm fairly satisfied. Was it overpriced? Hell yes. But I'm too big an ED nerd to have ever passed this up.
